Where is the University of Toledo located?

I'm considering applying to the University of Toledo and was wondering exactly where it is located. Is it in a big city or a college town? Any insights on the surroundings would be awesome.

The University of Toledo is located in Toledo, Ohio, the fourth most populous city in the state. It is certainly not a college town; instead, Toledo is a well-developed urban and industrial area known for its art community, auto assembly businesses, education, healthcare, and local sports teams.

Toledo offers a mix of big-city amenities with a smaller town’s sense of community. Some students enjoy the various cultural, entertainment, and recreational activities available in the city, such as the Toledo Museum of Art, Toledo Zoo, and opportunities for outdoor activities at Maumee Bay State Park and the Toledo Botanical Garden. The city also hosts various festivals and events throughout the year.

However, the city's urban locale means that it's not as quiet or slow-paced as a small college town might be. Students at the University of Toledo should be comfortable with a busier city environment. That said, its location can provide ample opportunities for internships and jobs in diverse fields, given the various industries present in Toledo.
